 TeXworks is a TeX previewer for Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows. It uses the
 Qt4 GUI framework and the Poppler PDF rendering library (compiled with Qt4
 wrapper). The TeXworks project has been founded by Jonathan Kew
 (www.sil.org), the developer of XeTeX. It is inspired by TeXShop, the only
 TeX previewer with a relative simple user interface. Jonathan Kew:
 "TeXworks aims to provide a simple TeX environment based on modern
 standards (including Unicode encoding and PDF output by default) with an
 uncluttered interface that does not overwhelm the newcomer. It is built
 using cross-platform, open-source tools and libraries, so as to be
 available on all today's major operating systems, with a native look and
 feel for each." ( --> tug.org/tug2008/abstracts/kew.pdf )
